Iscar 6402814 Grooving Insert GIP300020P IC908 3mm

Product Description

The ISCAR 6402814 is a solid carbide grooving insert carrying the GIP300020P designation and IC908 manufacturer grade, designed for parting and grooving operations on CNC lathes and turning centers. The insert features a 3.00 mm cutting width and a maximum depth of cut of 13.00 mm, making it well suited for moderate-depth grooving passes. A PVD-applied TiAlN coating provides thermal resistance and wear protection across a broad range of workpiece materials. The double-end configuration delivers two usable cutting edges per insert, extending tool life between changeovers. Licensed machinists and CNC turning specialists are the primary installers of this tooling.

This insert belongs to the Cut-Grip series and is rated for universal primary workpiece material, covering ISO material groups H, K, M, P, and S. The P chip breaker geometry and positive rake angle of 7 degrees support controlled chip formation during grooving cycles. It is applicable in both production turning and job-shop environments where consistent groove width and surface finish are required. The insert conforms to ISO 13399 tooling data standards, supporting integration with tool management and CAM systems.

• Double-end insert body provides two cutting edges per piece
• Positive rake angle of 7 degrees with P chip breaker geometry for controlled chip evacuation
• Corner radius of 0.20 mm for groove profile consistency
• Compliant with ISO 13399 tooling data standards

Compatibility

Designed for use in ISCAR Cut-Grip series grooving and parting toolholders that accept GIP-style inserts with the 300020 size code. Verify toolholder pocket specifications before ordering to confirm fitment.

Installation Notes

Insert seating and clamping should be performed by a qualified machinist following the toolholder manufacturer's torque and clamping instructions. Power down and lock out the machine spindle before replacing inserts. Inspect the toolholder pocket for chips, burrs, or wear before seating the new insert, as debris in the pocket will affect cutting geometry and repeatability. Handle carbide inserts carefully to avoid chipping the cutting edges during installation.
